Learning Success Review and Giveaway


Hey y'all. 

I'm back with another review. This one is for the kiddos or even teachers. Business first then I'll tell you about it from my pint of view. By the way, it is called Learning Success.



Information from the company:
The learning success program is a simple do-at-home program that will show you how to find the core problems and overcome them. Learning is made up of basic core skills. There are 16 of them in all. Typical learning difficulties are small weaknesses in a combination of two or three of these skills. Helps overcome learning difficulties such as:
  • Dyslexia
  • Dyscalculia
  • Dysgraphia
  • ADD/ADHD
Each of these terms simply means that there is a weakness in two or more of these basic learning skills. But it doesn't define which. Once you get started in the course you'll quickly find the trouble spots. Once you do that your child will be on the path to learning success. You will learn simple exercises that strengthen the skills needed for successful learning. Modern scientific breakthroughs have discovered a number of methods for overcoming these problems. Once you do your child will actually enjoy homework.

The normal price for this course is $564

The course is delivered via email. You will receive emails each day with exercises you simply print out and do with your child. Takes approximately 15 - 20 minutes 3-5 days per week. Results are typically seen starting at about 3 months but can come earlier. Severe problems will take approximately 1 year to overcome. We will continue delivering exercises for one year or until you cancel.

My Review:

So first of all, this is an email based program. That is actually awesome for me, because we have a tendency of misplacing papers. It is a daily delivery system so you don't have to go searching for old emails. Another plus.

Z doesn't have any learning disabilities that we know of but I thought it would be good to help him get ahead. I must say he is progressing nicely. I could see this being very useful for a kiddo with a learning disability or even to help a teacher who works with those types of students.

Z loves baby A

Hey y'all,

So, I realize more and more how much Z loves Baby A ( his little cousin). They are super adorable together. She wakes up in the mornings before he goes to school to see him off. He gives her a kiss and hug every nght before he goes to sleep. They watch cartoons together. He tries to teach her the alphabet, numbers, and anything else he learns at school. He is her protector. I love the that they love each other so much.


They hold hands while she does tumy time. Aren;t these two jst precious?

Writing with Z


Hey guys.

Z and I have been offered the opportunity to test out a handwriting software. I am super excited about it, because I want him to be able to write legibly by the time Kindergrten starts in August. Woo Hoo!!!! From browsing the company's site, I can already tell this is going to work out pretty darn good.

Z is a total left hander. This makes it a bit more difficult for me because I'm right handed. This is another reason I am excited about the software. It takes some of the stress off me. We took it for a test run yesterday. Let me tell you, he got super pumped to see just his name on the sheet.

A little about the product...
It is a downloadable software by StartWrite. You install it and it allows you to create your own personalized handwriting sheets. You can Download Demo here. It will allow you to test it for yourself.


Now to the final business at hand...
One lucky reader will win a full version of the software to test with Z and I. Enter below.

Welcome

Happy Holidays

Welcome to my blog
This is my first blog but I have been contemplating it for a few months now. I finally decided to take the plunge. I invite you to grow with me through this blogging experience. I however am no stranger to sharing my thoughts and opinions. I started with a YouTube channel shared by my sister and I. We have not posted in what is probably close to a year. We or I will be starting back to doing and posting videos soon. I digress this is about a blog and me sharing more day to day thoughts, musings, ramblings, and goings on. 

Who am I?
I am a stay/work at home mommy of 1. My work at home consists of soap and toiletry crafting, baking, and most recently Jamberry nail wraps. My main passion is baking and sometimes cooking. I love to paparazzi my tiny one. As I stated earlier, I have the craft ADD so you will definitely see crafts and DIY projects. I am a pinterest fanatic. I am also a sporadic makeup enthusiast. I don't wear it often or enjoy the outdoors much because allergies. 

Who is Z?
Z is my above average height, precocious four year old. He is intelligent, adorable, and quite maddening from time to time. He has lots of unexpected and unpredictable responses to everyday life and situations. I don't know if he is the norm or not, but he is entertaining most days. He is currently all for anything green (his favorite color), dinosaurs, trains, and power rangers. He is a strange man, who watches cartoons by default. He would rather watch the toy reviews on YouTube. 

What you will find on this blog?
I will be coming here to share product reviews, subscription boxes, crafty dealings, and life with Z. Some reviews may be sponsored and some not, but all opinions will be mine and completely honest. I have an immense love for subscription boxes and mail so when I can you will definitely see those here. I have a touch of craft ADD. I flit from one craft to the next and back. Finally, life with Z, it is just that life with Z. It is usually unexpected and somewhat offhandedly funny. 


That is us in a nutshell.
